Common enough in a drinks context. But really, that doesn't matter because it's metric: you're not going to end up with 4269 fartbuckets to the whateverthefuck. Instead it says centi so it's a 100th of the thing, which is barely even mental arithmetic at all. It's slightly larger than the standard 500ml can, the + is because they'd like to emphasize the "bonus"
US or British Fartbuckets ? |

Yes, Switzerland is weirdly obsessed with centilitres, not sure why. But it's metric so it's not a big deal. is it just a different way of saying 56.5cl? Yes.
Because deciliters is proper metric notation. We don't count large distances in millimeters. |

It’s a Thai and Austrian company. This is the original Red Bull An Austrian dude found this drink in Thailand and then negotiated a deal with the family that owns Krating Deng (Red Bull) so he could sell a fizzy version in Europe and later the rest of the world. Thanks to that Austrian guy that Thai family is now the richest family in Thailand.
Crazy story! I'm so glad it worked out for each party. |

Probably not since the actual thing they are likely referring to with that sentence is the 250ml Red Bull can. |

I don't know about the US, but in Canada Red Bull comes in 250ml, 355ml, and 500ml sizes.
In the US you can get 8.4oz (248ml), 12oz (355ml), 16oz (473ml), 20oz (591ml). |

You can tell that's an old article because you haven't been able to get a $4 beer in sports stadiums in forever. I ordered a tall boy at a baseball game this season and it set me back $20!
It really depends on the stadium how much they gouge you. $20 is more than every NFL stadium charges for 16 oz (about 48 cl) of beer according to this as of February 2026: https://1075thefan.com/playlist/price-of-beer-at-every-nfl-stadium |

It has other kinds of sugars in it, like inositol. Not to mention the caffiene. |

It's an Austrian company even though 51% of it is still owned by the Yoovidhya family. They co-founded the company in Austria with Mateschitz and hold the current patent. But it's still an Austrian company, not a Thai one. At least I could find nothing that clearly states it's legally Thai in any capacity. |

Is that centiliters? I wasn't aware that was a commonly used unit. I've only ever seen ml. But how does the 50+6.5 thing work? Is there like a second reservoir, or is it just a different way of saying 56.5cl?
It's basically just saying "hey, it's more than 50cl!" (Which is a common can size). It's a pretty stupidly small amount to have different cans and advertise for IMO, at least make it 10cl more. |

I really like the taste, I wish I could get something with it that wasn't an energy drink and with a lot less sugar (light/sugar sugarfree anything makes me feel sick so that's not an option). |

I worked at McDs during the 1/3 Angus burger and... yes. It happened, more times than I'd like. I tried convincing a couple people, then after that who cared. I was getting $8/hr. Fuck it it's a worse deal and you get a smaller burger but you do you genius.
I still miss the grand Angus. It was a great patty that was usually seasoned well and the sauce was bangin |

I don't know about dogs but cats can't synthesize their own taurine, kind of like humans can't synthesize vitamin C, so their food has to be enriched in it. |
